"So, do you enjoy walking with me..." Saxa asks with a smile.

"Uh yeah, sure..."

"Ugh, you're so disingenuine..."

"Sorry I guess..."

"No-... It's fine, my mistake..."

"Thor?"

"Yes Saxa?"

"What is your favorite color?"

"Red."

"Why?"

"Symbolises war,bravery and love."

"Hmm, interesting, now you ask me a question."

"Okay sure, why are we asking each other questions?"

"Is that seriously your question?"

"Yes."

"To get to know each other better."

"Oh okay..."

"What is your favorite memory or memories?"

"Spending time with my father."

"What was your father like by the way?"

"Honourable, respectful, iron-hearted and intelligent."

"Wow, your father sounds like a great guy..."

"Yeah, he was..."

"Well my condolences..."

"Thank you, anyways, why do you let me sleep next to you every night?"

Saxa started blushing.

"Well, um... Because I don't want you to sleep with those barbarians in the barracks of course..." Saxa says with an awkward giggle.

"But I've been a barbarian my whole life?"

"Well, you are respectful, you're not like the others..."

"What are the others like then?" Thorvald asks.

"They're pervets and they rape English women..."

"Hmm, how do you know this?"

"My father did it..."

Thorvald stopped and his eyes grew extremely large.

"What?!"

"What isn't that like a thing you guys do?"

"No, or not at least where I am from..."

Thorvald then started walking again and his eyes went back into his neutral state.

"Have you had sex Thor?"

"Nope..."

"Really!?"

"Yeah, why have you?"

"Yeah once..."

"Mmm, that's nice..."

"No not really, the guy broke up with me right after the sex..."

"Why?"

"Apparently I'm not fertile..."

"What does that mean..."

"You seriously don't know anything about sex do you?"

"Why should I? I only care about my sword and morals..."

"Fair enough, anyway, I basically can't have babies..."

"Oh..."

"Oh? Is that all you have to say?"
